@mhanson101 @luckytran Think of hand washing as helping to reduce total viral load. The less your immune system has to work fighting multiple battles, the better your chances of staying healthy. #washyourhands #wearamask

In other news, water is wet. #CovidIsNotOver #MaskUp #WashYourHands 😷👃 👆🚫https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/105754

I am amazed at how many people touch Dumpster lids.

Dumpsters are NEVER SANITIZED!!!!!

What's worse, they then touch their face!!!

Just a reminder that while the primary source of #COVID19 transmission is airborne & droplet, surfaces are the third leading source per #WHO report last year & further confirmed by a new study by London's Imperial College described here:

Great reminder at #NOLA’s Louis Armstrong Airport, complete with an Armstrong classic to sing instead of Happy Birthday #WashYourHands

Dr. Griffin told a very harrowing story about a hospitalized #norovirus patient who ended up vomiting so hard he tore his esophagus, so I think I had a really minor case! 😳 #WashYourHands with soap and water!!!! (Husband is still noro-free! 🤞🏻) 6/

Because it sucks to go to the hospital for one problem and end up with another one…

In a crowded place, a face mask or respirator keeps the virus away https://wapo.st/3yeLXgu “A mask a day keeps the Covid away…” - VaniaJi #masks #covid #practical #washyourhands

To all restaurant staff: PLEASE #washyourhands

I can tell when you haven't whenever I accept that greasy, nasty beverage cup/glass from you.

This is just an FYI for anyone who doesn't frequent public restrooms (specifically men's, but may be true for women's as well?):

If I visit a public restroom and am not the only person in it... it is *rare* for there to not be at least one person (often more) who leaves without washing their hands. This was true pre-pandemic, peak-pandemic, and now. It is true in restaurants, hospitals, airports, expensive venues and cheap venues.

This is #gross. Please #WashYourHands

Wow! I have been sick AF for the last 10 days. Like I've literally only slept for most of that time. Not COVID and not the flu, but honestly, I don't care. It was the sickest I have ever been in my life.

PSA: #WearAMask and #WashYourHands. There are unnamed viruses going around that will take you down hard if you're not careful.

The data didn't change, you just stopped looking. #WearAMask #WashYourHands #DontBeADick

@nilikm

I read that #Philadelphia school district is going to require masks for the first week back --- VERY smart.

I know 3 people who've gotten covid in the last 2 weeks all of them are VERY sick. 102-103 temps and very ill.

Never take food from someone who is able to leave the bathroom while the toilet is still flushing.

Happy 2023!
May your New Year be filled with peace, love, health and high rates of hand hygiene compliance 🥳

Hospital librarian-ing takes me all sorts of places mentally. I can’t recall offhand which journal I saw this in; I had this old journal out for an ILL for a different article in it. I think it was an issue from the 1970s. This caught my eye. So young. His obit is so emblematic of medicine then and still now. Grateful we know more about infectious disease now; hope we start to use those smarts to prevent further inroads of such plagues in future. #Medicine #MaskUp #WashYourHands

Lots of people getting #COVID right now.
